Hi everyone.

Last October I was in Japan thanks to Wales Arts International and Waleslab continuing with the project and collaboration with choreographer/dancer Yo Nakamura.

The film produced at the time was published in Japanese but today I am happy to share with you the english subtitled version.

Back in March, on a windswept beach in the Vale of Glamorgan, Bread & Goose began an adventure into a new project called Return. We wanted to explore Penelope's version of events in Homer's Odyssey, and to work in connection with the landscape and weather echoing her experiences of waiting and loss. Supported by Waleslab, we spent a week onsite exploring and developing ideas for the piece, and at the end of the week we hosted a little sharing. Here is a film of some of…

Hello, everyone!

Last summer I got inspiration from HIRAETH and participated in WalesLab.  I and Jorge Lizalde(video artist) went to Aberystwyth and interview people about their memory.

Now we started next stage "Cymru & I in japan, Nagaoka"

Nagaoka is my birth place. So we started the journey to discover my "HIRAETH".…

Cymru and I in Japan is coming to an end.  Time last week has passed really fast.  Since our arrival from Nagaoka on Wednesday,  Yo  has been creating, rehearsing and share a little dance inspiration from the journey.

A bit more than a year ago I had the opportunity to collaborate and illustrate visually Yo Nakamura visit to Wales and her searching to understand the meaning of welsh word, Hiraeth. Resulting on this film (…

Way back in Nov last year we launched a new programme of talks and networking opportunities called 'Huddles'. They have been designed to support the business and administrative sides of being a freelance artist.

So far we've had talks on all sorts, from how to find the right company structure, to personal tax and finance, fundraising, embracing digital and how to sell your work to venues, audience and press (these will soon be appearing on our website…

Hello everyone!

Today, I would like to talk about the sharing of "Cymru and I".

This summer, I went to a small town in Wales. The town is Aberystwyth.

I met 9 people by chance in the town. They told me about memories in Aberystwyth and precious memories of their life.

Video artist: Jorge Lizalde

Interpreter: Kyoko Iwaki…

Underground Airport is now in Tokyo. We deeply thank NTW for giving such a wonderful opportunity of Waleslab.

Today, I would like to share what we did and what we have found during our 2 week experience in Wales.

On 27th Aug, we did the sharing of our Waleslab project "Red Dragon and Soil Traveller: Traveller's Diary" at the Chapter art centre. We were so surprised and glad that we could do our sharing twice because of many audience!!

Hello everyone!

Thank you for coming for WalesLab"Cymru and I" sharing on 27 Aug.

I'm very glad that I could get so much advice.

I was able to know the interesting points of "Cymru and I" that I didn't notice.

I got courage to continue my project.

Thank you very much!

Through "Cymru and I", I could meet many…

This is what we saw.Beauty of nature was holding us.

The Wylfa power station groaned.

I felt sadness because we have (or had) such scenery in Japan.

Hello. I came back to Cardiff yesterday.

The adventure in Aberystwyth was very exciting!

Aberystwyth is very beautiful place!

The people are very kind!

I interviewed 9 person about "the memory".

They are tourists, students, professor, dancer and so on.

At first, I planned to…

In the second week of NTWSummercamp 2014 I became faced with the question of how to make work in such a beautiful, secluded and peaceful place, whilst keeping a consciousness of the news coming in of heightening conflicts elsewhere in the world. I took the further question of 'how to respond' on a repeated walk through the landscape. From this dialogue with the landscape I devised actions, shot video diaries and wrote texts, and these were pieced together with memories from the film 'five…

I posted this letter on the Summercampers 14 facebook page a while ago but was asked to share it here too, so here it is (and the photo is I think by Josh Alan Trask and video installed at 'the jetty' by Jac Ifan Moore, Jack Furness, Dom Farelli) :
